<p><span class="header2">Abstract:</span><br>
J2EE has become a defacto standard for building multi-tier 
applications, but
finding the bottleneck in J2EE Applications and scaling to the limit is 
a very
complex task. In this session we will discuss how to identify the 
problems in
different tiers of J2EE Application and how you can tune your 
applications and
the application server to achieve high performance. We will provide 
guidelines
to achieve high performance and scalability for your applications.
